thanksgiving day's been put away
and the final leaves have floated
to the ground
but landing on a bed of snow
feels warm somehow
we've said goodbye to all the friends
and family we soon see again
go to sleep and wake up to the
brand new scene
then suddenly
rockefeller's covered in the lights
families are playing on the ice
from Harlem to the Battery
every corner's bustling
suddenly it's Christmas in New York
croquettes are warming up their kicks
Radio City sold out all of their tickets
the windows on Fifth Avenue
are dressed up and they're telling you
suddenly it's Christmas in New York
find me on Broadway or at the ballet
and I'm five years old again
making my wish list, but all I wish is
for another Christmas in New York
oh, Santaland is ready to debut
when Macy's is so packed
you can't get through
the kids are lined up everywhere
spilling out into the square
suddenly it's Christmas in New York
Taxi
take me straight to Central Park
[musik]
isn't the city beautiful?
[musik]
find me on Broadway or at the ballet
and I'm five years old again
making my wish list, but all I wish is
for another Christmas in New York
can you hear the church bells ring-a-ling?
as the choirs do their caroling
the Saint Patties activity
is something everyone should see
it even makes the Grinch believe
Central Park looks beautiful in white
cuddled up and meet the blanket
taking in the sides
the city is all red and green
wrapped up like a gift for me
finally it's Christmas in New York
no, there's nothing better
we should all have Christmas in New York
